Head of the Egyptian Community in Spain Fathy Seliman called for establishing an Egyptian school in Spain.

He further said that establishing an Egyptian school in Spain is important to teach the Egyptians living in Spain the traditions of their homeland and the moderate religion, which is away of extremism.

He was speaking to MENA on the occasion of a visit by Egypt's President Abdel Fattah El Sisi to Spain, which will start today.

Seliman said the Egyptian community will organize a stand tomorrow outside the Egyptian embassy here to welcome the Egyptian president.

There are about 5,000 Egyptians living in Spain.
